It's not the jokes and mocking they got the boot for it's spreading intentionally misleading election information like when and how to vote.


The article gives one example and says it was a "few" accounts. Why ban all of them?


They weren't all banned. There's still at least a couple of these NPC satire accounts floating around out there now.

Eugenics is bunk and low information voters are still entitled to their representation and votes.
